[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1442956, member: 4191"] I've used KG-12 copper removing solvent and Bore Tech CU+2 extensively in the past. They both work pretty well. The issue with KG-12 is it doesn't indicate/stain the cleaning patches the common bluish tint when copper is still present in the bore. Bore Tech will stain the cleaning patches blue. So I found using Bore Tech to be easier to determine if copper remained in the bore, and the relative magnitude/degree of that remaining copper fouling. For what that's worth... I still have some KG-12, but I now use the Bore Tech CU+2 for this reason. I think both products are non-corrosive. Just that Bore Tech will indicate blue making is relatively easy to determine how much copper remains, and when the copper is +95% removed. Or removed to whatever percentage removal you seek. If your bore doesn't foul very heavily, you'll end up with white patches without too much time and effort using the Bore Tech CU+2 product. [/QUOTE]
